I'm a little torn about trying to introduce one. He only gets his pacifier for naps and bedtime but we're hoping to wean him of it soon. I think a lovey would be perfect but I'm worried that he'll want to play with it instead of sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408822 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 01:15:45 +0000 HLK208 408822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's only attached to me, too!

But he's not ATTACHED to me so I guess I'm okay with it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408783 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 23:21:59 +0000 skibobrown 408783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD has a "lovey" that we give to her in hopes that she will form an attachment and start learning some self soothing. She does enjoy her lovey, but she doesn't use it for self soothing yet. She loves eating her lovey blanket though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408769 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 23:07:35 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 408769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He only recently became obsessed with a stuffed dog he has. He hugs it to go to sleep...so cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408750 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 22:47:28 +0000 mynoahbear 408750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO never took to one.

She loves her stuffed animals, but doesn't NEED any one in particular to fall asleep.<br /> Actually. She asks for her mungmung (patrick the pup) when it's sleep time, but ditches him eventually :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408656 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 21:27:43 +0000 Smurfette 408656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister bought us one when we first told her we were expecting. She bought a pink one cause she was sure we were having a girl! It is so cute, hope our girl loves her first present from her aunt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408648 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 21:23:20 +0000 T-Mom 408648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD only got attached to a lovey at age 2 but not for lack of our trying. Getting at least 2 is a good idea. We lost one overseas and thankfully had an extra, and then i bought one more for day care nap time. now the stuffed animal is no longer being made so if we lose it we are in big trouble! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408619 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 21:04:03 +0000 heffalump 408619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She only loves her thumb. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408517 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 19:46:51 +0000 Ree723 408517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD usually naps hugging her little monkey lovey but I don't let her sleep with it at night - she tends to throw it over her face and leave it there, which I can take care of during the day, but not at night! </p> <p>I don't think she's particularly attached to this one lovey but she does enjoy cuddling it. We might introduce her to a few other loveys as well so she doesn't get overly attached to just one thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408439 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 18:22:22 +0000 dagret 408439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@caffeinated: I thought that might be the case...right now I have 3 different ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408366 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 16:58:29 +0000 Freckles 408366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: Get 2!!

I had no idea either - I thought it was just a term used for any item a child had a particular attachment to, whether it was a stuffed animal or a blanket or what! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408295 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 16:28:24 +0000 loveisstrange 408295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C also has two of them. She sleeps with the one every night, but I don't think she's overly attached to it. It's this one: </p> [attach=1353/12/mdt2bc.499x456.--KGrHqZHJE0E-7T9J6mHBQ-KWt2jIg--60_12.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-lovey-1#post-408282 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 16:21:10 +0000 Weagle 408282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try.
